 Internal Competition - There are natural issues which crop
up such as price inconsistency, wrong models being sold
off, or anything else which is probably not in the policies of
the company.

Points of Strategic differences - Differences in goals or strategy can

cause a misalignment between the objectives of the dealer
conflict and the objectives of the company.

Operational conflicts - Accountancy of the manufacturing

company might be improper, causing mismanagement and
time wastage on the side of the dealer. Alternatively, the
companies service levels might not be upto mark, thereby
increasing the pressure on the sales channel.
